ORCAS ISLAND, Puget Sound, July 15. This is one of the
larger of about 175 wooded islands scattered over the surface
of this section of Puyet Sound. It is also one of the oldest from
the standpoint of settlement.

The CCC boys have done a

and constructed numerous trails all over the island. Their

sound. We motored there just
distance to the top where the
observation tower. With the
in the west and the full moon,
was certainly something worth
suspended high in the air, for from the observation point there
is a sheer drop to the tops of the firs and pines below, through
which the surfaces of little lakes shimmered like pewter discs,
while far to tho right, the snowy slopes of Mt. linker pierced
the hazy horizon, the edges tipped with rose, from the rays of
the setting Bun. One couldn't believe the water below had
anything to do with the Pacific ocean. There are so many
islands, large, small and medium, of all shapes and sizes, the
water so still and quiet between, that it gave the effect of
rivers and lakes scattered over a heavily wooMed land. We have
never had it explained but there is no doubt, of this the perfect
time to view scenery of any kind is at sunset, not at sunrise
or when the sun is well up in the sky. There is a softness and
depth of beauty not reached at any other time. As the darkness
increased, the lights of Dellingham came out along the shore
line far to the east, liko a sparkling set-piece of jewels and
far off in the haze in the other
flashed on and off, either an airway beacon or more likely a
light-house, off the shore of Vancouver Island.
There were others enjoying the view, as we climbed up. One
group of three ladies had an aged cocker spaniel dog, that
resented our intrusion for lie growled ominously and yapped
also. "Don't be rude, Major, don't be rude" eluded the more
elderly of tho three in a very Knplish voice. We don't believe
the pup was disturbed by us, no doubt the view was affecting
him, particularly tho full moon, which was rapidly changing
from a lemon yellow to a deep mellow, gold. That moon was
enough to stir any dog's emotions.
Wo wouldn't recommend the trip down in the dark to any
one nervously inclined. The road is steep, twisty, and there arc
many sharp turns, free from all obstructions, where the tempta
tion to get another view, is hard to resist, but if you are at
the wheel better be. Tho CCC boys have just started to place
stone and log railings along the curves, tho journey in the dark
will be much more enjoyable when this has been done.
. .
One marvels that so few of these beautiful wooded islands
are inhabited, but the answer of course is the two or three hour
boat trip from the mainland. There are so many attractive
places in this Puget Sound country which can be reached by
motor, and time is such nn important factor in modern life.
However as the population of this northwest increases, travel
by air and hydro-piano become more common, no doubt summer
homes and summer resorts, will in time be scattered all over
these islands, which will be rather a pity, when one comes to
think of it.
The hotels on Oreas Island interested us they are so early
90, in short so simple, unassuming and unchanged. The food
was good at the hotel whero we stayed, the landlady extremely
nice and accommodating, but we were placed in a cottage, with
out, heat, light (except kerosene lamps) or running water nor
did the windows have screens, a fact long ago discovered by the
native mosquitoes. When we came to pay our bill however,
the rate was $3 per day for everything food, lodging and a
pail of hot water on tho front stoop, left by the boy in the early
morning. What are a few mosquito bites, when one can eat
threo meals a day, sleep in a comfortable bed, and enjoy un
equalled scenery, for three dollars per diem. It broke our budget

E are grateful, of course, for tne
money, and wa can use It
good advantage. We stilt need some
more roads, and we need quite' badly
to improve a lot of the roads we
already have.
And we need grade crossing elimi
nations every fatal accident at 1
railroad crossing gives testimony to
that. If the federal government
going to spend money like a drunken
sailor, It can spend it In no better
way than on roads, which will be 01
permanent value.
UT one can't help remembering
that this highway money is only
a drop In the bucket. When one con
aiders Bonneville, and the relief load
and all the vast sums that cities
and counties all over the state are
hoping to get he Is forced to realise
that the total will be sizeable
total.
And Oregon la only one of
states.
centuries people were taught
believe that If they, or their
governments, spent persistently more
money than waa taken In bank
ruptcy was Inevitable. So It Is in
teresting to take a look at what Ore-
gon CONTRIBUTES to the federal
government lh return for what she
receives.
A table Just Issued by the treasury
department at Washington give the
figures for 1935 the fiscal year
1935, that Is, which ended on June
30.
N the fiscal year of 1935, Oregon
. contributed In taxes to the 1
tlonal government a total of $9,074,-
309.73. That is only about a third
more than It Is to get back In one
lump for highways and grade elimi
nations.
We're certainly getting a good bar
gain, and probably we should follow
the old advice about not looking
gift horse In the mouth. But there
Is the gnawing fear that spending
persistently more than Is taken
means bankruptcy.
Oregon Is a part of the United
States and If the United States goes
bankrupt so will Oregon.
THERE are some Interesting facts
about Oregon's tax contribution
to the federal government.
Income taxes amounted to 92,625,
236.61. of which 1,293.013.38 was
paid by corporations and $1,333,234.23
by Individuals. Miscellaneous Inter
nal revenue taxes amounted to $2,
426,352.59, or almost as much as
Income taxes.
B
UT here comes the real surprise:
paid to the federal government by
citizens of the state of Oregon
amounted to $4,022,730.53, or almost
HALF of Oregon's total tax contribu
tion to the federal government.
This agricultural adjustment tax
program has teeth In It.
W
HILE we are on this subject 01
spending, here is just one more
set of figures:
In the first 124 years of Its exist
ence, from President Washington to
President Taft, the government of
the United States spent a total 01
$24,531,845,000.
Expenditures of the Roosevelt ad
ministration actual for 1934 and
estimated for 1935 and 1936; three
years altogether are expected to be
$24,306,653,000.
THAT Is to say, we're spending in
THREE years almost exactly as
much as we spent In our first 134
years. We're going some, arent wev
Where we are going, nobody knows.
